It was an action brought by Daniel Walkley , haulier and carrier , of Cinderford Bridge , against John August Adam William Fox , general dealer , of Newnham , for tres- pass by breaking down , upon the 24th Dec , 1913 , a fence which had been erected by the plaintiff for the purpose of barring an alleg- Mr. ed right of way by the defendant .

Constance ) , pointing to the fact that the society was established as long ago as 1858 , and that it secured benefits to mem- hers throughout life , puts it that , with the increasing proportion of older members , it can be no cause for surprise that the claims upon the sick fund should again be heavy . As much as £ 227 9s . 8d . has been paid away to 49 members during 1913. In the 54 years of the Society's existence its sick payments RUARDEAN HILL .

Some exciting minutes in the Hereford circle must have made the home goalie feel a bit uneasy . Hard luck , " Tiger ! " Kerwood was again a star artiste at centre half . At back Cooper was weak , but made up for his slackness when removed to his old position . Smith and Morgan were the pick of the forwards . Meredith must be congratulated on his good play , likewise Turner and Bussell . Thomas in goal could not be blamed for the shots that beat him . For Hereford Grasett , Stephens , and Whitfield played a great game . Ross entertain Bradley Court this week at Ross , when the following players will repre- sent them : A. H. Clift , H.

J + The Saints The Ross St. Mary's visited Whitchurch on Saturday last to fulfil their return fixture with that club . The home team won the toss and decided to take advantage of the strong wind , and play up the slope . immediately forced an attack and took the ball into the home goal . When in a good position to score , one of the visiting team was charged in the back , and a penalty was awarded . Watkins took the kick , and scored with a hard shot . With the visitors lead- ing , Whitchurch put more life into the game , and took the play into the other half . From this period of the game , play was even , each goal area being visited in turn , but with fairly good defences each attack was cleared . In the second half , the Saints soon commenc ed to score again , Yemm and Marshall add- ing a goal each . With this strong lead , the Saints took matters easily , but their defence was tested to its utmost in the closing stages of the game , when the homesters bombarded their goal , but without result , the game end- ing in favour of the Saints by three goals to nil .

First League football on Saturday was that of Aston Va . who followed up a splendid run of successes by beating Manchester United at Old Trafford by 6 gols to 0. Aston Villa can certainly claim to have shown themselves the most brilliant sie in the second half of the season . Since the first Saturday in January they have won eleven games off the reel- seven in the League and four in the competi- tion for the Association Cup . Whilst Astou Villa were such acquitting themselves in splendid style at Manchester , Blackburn Rovers found themselves engaged in a desper- ately hard fight with Everton at Goodison Park , and merely divided the points , but Bolton Wanderers , Sunderland , Oldham Athletic , West Bromwich Albion , and Burnley victorious , so , however easily the Rovers may carry off first honours , there should be a most interesting struggle for second place . 8H.P.

They found their them ; while Woolwich Arsenal , playing at task at Steckport on Saturday too much for Arsenal , therefore , home , defeated Fuliam . now lead their rivals by two clear points , each club having fulfilled thirty fixtures . Notts County won their game on Saturday , left nothing to They chance , beating Leicester Fosse by 4 goals to 1. Six points ahead , although at the expense of two extra games played , Notts County are not likely to be over- taken by Woolwich Arsenal , and with over a month's football yet to come they may already be regarded as champions of the division . The outstanding feature of Saturday's engage . ments was the wonderful run of success en foyed by clubs playing on their own grounds . No fewer than nine of them won , Birmingham having to rest content with a draw with Blackpool .

The memorial raised , a hornet's nest , and the council's answer is in effect : " You can golf as much as you like , for the common is free and open to all , but not a foot of it shall be marked off especially for anybody .
